Notes

  • You can make the jalapeno poppers ahead of time. Stuff the jalapeno halves and wrap them with a plastic wrap. At this stage you can keep them in the fridge for 3 to 4 days or freeze for 3 months.
  • When ready to cook, press the jalapeno in the breadcrumb mix and air fry.
  • When cooking frozen jalapeno poppers, increase the cooking time.
  • Leftovers can be kept in the fridge for 4 days and reheat using your preferred method.
